PART I
Items 1 and 2. Business and Properties.
General
Goodrich Petroleum Corporation and subsidiaries ("Goodrich" or "the
Company") is an independent oil and gas company engaged in the exploration,
development, production and acquisition of oil and natural gas properties in
the onshore portions of the United States, primarily the states of Louisiana
and Texas. The Company owns working and overriding royalty interests in 91114
active oil and gas wells located in 3733 fields in eight states. At December 31,
1998,1999, Goodrich had estimated proved reserves of approximately 3,093,0005,739,000
barrels of oil and condensate and 28.120.9 Bcf of natural gas, or an aggregate of
46.755.3 Bcfe with a pre-tax present value of future net revenues, discounted at
10%, of $40.63$92.4 million and an after-tax Standardized Measure value of $78.6
million. On a pro forma basis, Goodrich had estimated proved reserves,
including the Burrwood/West Delta acquisition, of approximately 6,630,000
barrels of oil and condensate and 26.8 Bcf of natural gas, or an aggregate of
66.6 Bcfe with a pre-tax present value of future net revenues, discounted at
10%, of $105.7 million and an after-tax Standardized Measure value of $89.0
million.
The Company's principal executive offices are located at 5847 San Felipe,815 Walker, Suite
7001040 Houston, Texas 77057.77002. The Company also has offices in Shreveport,
Louisiana. At March 2, 19998, 2000 the Company had 16 employees.
Company Background
Goodrich resulted from a business combination on August 15, 1995 between
La/Cal Energy Partners ("La/Cal") and Patrick Petroleum Company and
subsidiaries ("Patrick"). La/Cal was a privately held independent oil and gas
partnership formed in July 1993 and engaged in the development, production and
acquisition of oil and natural gas properties, primarily in Southern
Louisiana. Patrick was a NYSE-listed independent oil and gas company engaged
in the exploration, production, development and acquisition of oil and natural
gas properties in the continental United States. Patrick's oil and gas
operations and properties were primarily located in West Texas and Michigan at
the time of the combination, with additional operations and properties in
certain westernWestern states.
On January 31, 1997, the Company acquired the oil and gas properties of
La/Cal Energy Partners II ("La/Cal II") and certain working interest owners
for a purchase price of $16.5 million ("La/Cal II Acquisition"). The purchase
price was comprised of $1.5 million in cash, the assumption of $7.5 million of
La/Cal II long-term debt and the issuance of 750,000 shares of Series B
convertible preferred stock of the Company ("Series B Preferred Stock") with
an aggregate liquidation value of $7.5 million.
Oil and Gas Operations and Properties
The following is a summary description of the Company's oil and gas
properties.
Louisiana
The majority of the Company's proved natural gas reserves are in the
Southern Louisiana producing region. The Southern Louisiana producing region
refers to the geographic area which covers the onshore and in-land waters of
South Louisiana lying in the southern one-half of the state of Louisiana,
which is one of the world's most prolific oil and natural gas producing
sedimentary basins. The region generally contains sedimentary sandstones,
which are of high qualities of porosity and permeabilities. There areis a myriad
of types of reservoir traps found in the region. These traps are generally
formed by faulting, folding and subsurface salt movement or a combination of
one or more of these. Salt movement has resulted in a large number of shallow
piercement salt domes as well as deeper movements, which have resulted in both
large and small anticlinal structures.
The formations found in the Southern Louisiana producing region range in
depth from 1,000 feet to 20,000 feet below the surface. These formations range
from the Sparta and Frio formations in the northern part of the region to
Miocene and Pleistocene in the southern part of the region. The Company's
production comes predominately from Miocene and Frio age formations.

down to the South faults. The field has produced from a minimum of eighteen
different Miocene age sandstones, which range in depth from 9,000 to 16,500
feet. These normally and abnormally pressured reservoirs exhibit depletion,
water and combination drive mechanisms, and have produced in excess of 832
billion cubic feet of gas and 20 million barrels of oil and condensate. There
are currently nine producing wells in the field.
Goodrich acquired its average 20% working interest in the field through a
farmout from MW Petroleum ("Apache") in July 1996 and a separate farmout from
Exxon. The Company controls approximately 1,079 acres in the field and is
currently evaluating 3D seismic for further exploitation opportunities.Bellwether Exploration Company.
Pecan Lake Field. The Pecan Lake Field was discovered in 1944 by the
Superior Oil Company. Geologically, the field is comprised of a relatively low
relief, four-way closure and multiple stacked pay sands. The Pecan Lake Field
comprises approximately 870 gross leased acres in Cameron Parish, Louisiana,
approximately 42 miles southeast of Lake Charles, Louisiana. The field has
produced from over 15 Miocene sands ranging in depths from 7,500 to 11,800

Australia
Goodrich has interest in three exploration permits in the Carnarvon Basin
of Western Australia.
The developmental stage of the offshore Carnarvon Basin of Western Australia
is comparable to the Gulf of Mexico in 1950.
The Carnarvon Basin is two-thirds the size of the Gulf of Mexico and has
produced in excess 4
of 4.3 TCF and 550 million barrels of oil from less than
1000 wells. In
comparison, the Gulf of Mexico has produced approximately 104 TCF of gas and 9
billion barrels of oil from 30,000 wells. The Carnarvon Basin retains significant exploration potential.
Additional strengths of the basin include large inexpensive acreage blocks,
vast available geological and geophysical data sets, existing and expanding
petroleum infrastructure and increasing domestic demands for natural gas.
EP-395. Goodrich Petroleum acquired a 20% non-operated working interest in
the 240 square kilometer Exploration Permit in 1995. The Permit is
approximately 30 km east from Barrow Island Field which has produced 300
million barrels of oil and 85 km southwest and on trend with the recent
Wandoo, Stag and Reindeer discoveries. Since 1995, the partners
have reprocessed the original 2-D seismic data sets, shot a 38 km 3-D seismic
survey (1995), and shot an additional 93 km of high quality 2-D seismic
(1997).seismic.
Interpretation of this data has confirmed two separate prospects: LindsayWest Boyd
and West Boyd. These prospectsLindsay. During 1999, Goodrich Petroleum farmed out its working interest
for a 6.9% carried interest through the drilling of the Boyd #1 well, which
was a dry hole. Currently, the partners are structural closures with associated
seismic amplitude anomalies. The primary objective for these prospects isevaluating information from the
Mardie Greenstone. This objective is a late cretaceous age, shallow marine
sandstone with porosities ranging up to 33%. A well is anticipated to be
drilled on the Lindsay prospect in late 1999. Carnarvon Petroleum N.L. is the
operator of this permit.dry hole.
EP-396. The Company acquired a 33% non-operated working interest in 1995.
EP-396 encompasses 400 square kilometers and is in close proximity to EP-395.
The partnership has reprocessed and interpretedIn January, 2000, the available 2-D seismic data

There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of proved
reserves and in projecting future rates of production and timing of
development expenditures, including many factors beyond the control of the
Company.
Reserve engineering is a subjective process of estimating underground
accumulations of crude oil, condensate and natural gas that cannot be measured
in an exact manner, and the accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of
the quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation
and judgment. The quantities of oil and natural gas that are ultimately
recovered, production and operating costs, the amount and timing of future
development expenditures and future oil and natural gas sales prices may all
differ from those assumed in these estimates. Therefore, the pre-tax Present
Value of Future Net Revenues amounts shown above should not be construed as
the current market value of the estimated oil and natural gas reserves
attributable to the Company's properties.
In accordance with the Commission's guidelines, the engineers' estimates of
future net revenues from the Company's properties and the pre-tax Present
Value of Future Net Revenues thereof are made using oil and natural gas sales
prices in effect as of the dates of such estimates and are held constant
throughout the life of the properties except where such guidelines permit
alternate treatment, including the use of fixed and determinable contractual
price escalations. The weighted average prices as of December 31, 19981999 used in such estimates
were $2.24averaged $2.63 per Mcf of natural gas and $9.37$25.16 per Bbl of crude
oil/condensate. Oil prices have subsequently increased while gas prices have
subsequently declined from December 31, 1998 levels.

(2) Net working interest.
Productive wells consist of producing wells and wells capable of
production, including gas wells awaiting pipeline connections. A gross well is
a well in which the Company maintains an ownership interest, while a net well
is deemed to exist when the sum of the fractional working interests owned by
the Company equals one. Wells that are completed in more than one producing
horizon are counted as one well. Of the gross wells reported above, eight had

Undeveloped acreage is considered to be those lease acres on which wells
have not been drilled or completed to a point that would permit the production
of commercial quantities of natural gas or oil, regardless of whether or not
such acreage contains proved reserves. As is customary in the oil and gas
industry, the Company can retain its interest in undeveloped acreage by
drilling activity that establishes commercial production sufficient to
maintain the leases or by payment of delay rentals during the remaining
primary term of such a lease. The natural gas and oil leases in which the
Company has an interest are for varying primary terms; however, most of the
Company's developed lease acreage is beyond the primary term and is held by
producing natural gas or oil wells.
Operator Activities
Goodrich Petroleum operates a majority in value of the Company's producing
properties, and will generally seek to become the operator of record on
properties it drills or acquires in the future.

Drilling Activities
The following table sets forth the drilling activity of the Company for the
last three years. (As denoted in the following table, "Gross" wells refers to
wells in which a working interest is owned, while a "net" well is deemed to
exist when the sum of fractional ownership working interests in gross wells
equals one.)

Oil and Gas Marketing and Major Customers
Marketing. Goodrich's natural gas production is sold under spot or market-
sensitive contracts and to various gas purchasers on short-term contracts.
Goodrich's natural gas condensate is sold under short-term rollover agreements
based on current market prices. The Company's crude oil production is marketed
to several purchasers based on short-term contracts.
8
The Company entered into an agreement with Natural Gas Ventures, L.L.C.
("NGV"), a Louisiana limited liability company, for the purpose of marketing
the Company's and its contracting parties' natural gas. The Company and other
contracting parties contribute natural gas to NGV, whichthat NGV then markets to
gas purchasers, pursuant to the Joint Venture Agreement between NGV and Seaber
Corporation of Louisiana ("Seaber"). The Company can terminate this agreement
on 60-days notice. The Company believes its contract with NGV allows it to
realize higher prices for its contributed gas because of the greater market
power associated with larger volumes of gas than the Company would have for
sale on a stand-alone basis.
Customers. Due to the nature of the industry, the Company sells its oil and
natural gas production to a limited number of purchasers and, accordingly,
amounts receivable from such purchasers could be significant. Revenues from
these sources as a percent of total revenues for the periods presented were as
follows:

Sales
During 1998, the Company sold its interest in certain oil and gas properties
located in Texas for $49,000.
During 1997, the Company sold its interests in certain oil and gas
properties located primarily in Montana for $370,000. During 1996, the Company
sold its interests in certain oil and gas properties located substantially in
North Dakota for $326,000.
Investment in Marcum Natural Gas Services
On January 5, 1999 the Company sold its investment in National Gas Services
("Marcum") for $240,000.$240,000 resulting in a realized loss of $520,000. Marcum is a
publicly held diversified provider of products and services to the natural gas
industry.
Competition
The oil and gas industry is highly competitive. Major and independent oil
and gas companies, drilling and production acquisition programs and individual
producers and operators are active bidders for desirable oil and gas
properties, as well as the equipment and labor required to operate those
properties. Many competitors have financial resources substantially greater
than those of the Company, and staffs and facilities substantially larger than
those of the Company. The availability of a ready market for the oil and gas
production of the Company will depend in part on the cost and availability of
alternative fuels, the level of consumer demand, the extent of domestic
production of oil and gas, the extent of importation of foreign oil and gas,
the cost of and proximity to pipelines and other transportation facilities,
regulations by state and federal authorities and the cost of complying with
applicable environmental regulations.
9
Regulations
The availability of a ready market for any natural gas and oil production
depends upon numerous factors beyond the Company's control. These factors
include regulation of natural gas and oil production, federal and state
regulations governing environmental quality and pollution control, state
limits on allowable rates of production by a well or proration unit, the
amount of natural gas and oil available for sale, the availability of adequate
pipeline and other transportation and processing facilities and the marketing
of competitive fuels. For example, a productive natural gas well may be "shut-
in" because of an oversupply of natural gas or the lack of an available
natural gas pipeline in the areas in which the Company may conduct operations.
State and federal regulations generally are intended to prevent waste of
natural gas and oil, protect rights to produce natural gas and oil between
owners in a common reservoir, control the amount of natural gas and oil
produced by assigning allowable rates of production and control contamination
of the environment. Pipelines are subject to the jurisdiction of various
federal, state and local agencies as well.
9
Environmental Regulation
Various federal, state and local laws and regulations covering the
discharge of materials into the environment, or otherwise relating to the
protection of the environment, may affect the Company's operations and costs
as a result of their effect on oil and gas development, exploration and
production operations. It is not anticipated that the Company will be required
in the near future to expend amounts that are material in relation to its
total capital expenditures program by reason of environmental laws and
regulations but, inasmuch as such laws and regulations are frequently changed
by both federal and state agencies, the Company is unable to predict the
ultimate cost of continued compliance. Additionally, see existing EPA matters
discussed in Item 3--Legal Proceedings.
State statutes and regulations require permits for drilling operations,
drilling bonds and reports concerning operations. In addition, there are state
statutes, rules and regulations governing conservation matters, including the
unitization or pooling of oil and gas properties, establishment of maximum
rates of production from oil and gas wells and the spacing, plugging and
abandonment of such wells. Such statutes and regulations may limit the rate at
which oil and gas could otherwise be produced from the Company's properties
and may restrict the number of wells that may be drilled on a particular lease
or in a particular field.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings.
The U. S.U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") has identified the Company
as a potentially responsible party ("PRP") for the cost of clean-up of
"hazardous substances" at an oil field waste disposal site in Vermilion
Parish, Louisiana. The Company estimates that the remaining cost of long-term
clean-up of the site will be approximately $3.5 million, with the Company's
percentage of responsibility estimated to be approximately 3.05%. As of
December 31, 1998,1999, the Company hashad paid approximately $321,000 in costs related to this
matter and has $92,000 accrued $122,500 for the remaining liability. These costs have not
been discounted to their present value. The EPA and the PRPs will continue to
evaluate the site and revise estimates for the long-term clean-up of the site.
There can be no assurance that the cost of clean-up and the Company's
percentage responsibility will not be higher than currently estimated. In
addition, under the federal environmental laws, the liability costs for the
clean-up of the site is joint and several among all PRPs. Therefore, the
ultimate cost of the clean-up to the Company could be significantly higher
than the amount presently estimated or accrued for this liability.
On February 8, 2000, the Company commenced a suit against the operator and
joint owner of the Lafitte Field, alleging certain items of misconduct and
violations of the letter agreement associated with the joint acquisition. The
suit is in its early stages and it is too early to predict a likely outcome,
however, as the Company is the plaintiff in this action, this action is not
expected to have a significantly adverse impact on the operations or financial
position of the Company.
The Company is party to additional lawsuits arising in the normal course of
business. The Company intends to defend these actions vigorously and believes,
based on currently available information, that adverse results or judgments
from such actions, if any, will not be material to its financial position or
results of operations.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Background of Business Combination and Basis of Presentation
The Company was created by the combination of Patrick Petroleum Company
("Patrick") and La/Cal Energy Partners ("La/Cal") in August 1995. The La/Cal--
Patrick business combination was accounted for on the basis of purchase
accounting, with La/Cal deemed to be the acquiror. Accordingly, on August 15,
1995, the Company recorded the assets and liabilities of Patrick at fair
value, whereas the assets and liabilities of La/Cal are reflected at
historical book value. The consolidated results of operations for the year
ended December 31, 1995 reflect the operations solely of La/Cal for the
portion of the year prior to August 15, 1995, whereas such results reflect the
operations of the combined entities for the remainder of the year. As a
result, comparison of the current and prior period financial statements with
the year ended December 31, 1995 is significantly impacted by the combination
transactions. Prior to the combination transactions, La/Cal was a privately
owned Louisiana general partnership formed on July 15, 1993 by the
contribution of certain oil and gas properties owned by the partners.
1997 Acquisition
On January 31, 1997, the Company acquired the oil and gas properties of
La/Cal Energy Partners II ("La/Cal II") and certain working interest owners
for a purchase price of $16.5 million ("La/Cal II Acquisition"). The purchase
price consisted of $1.5 million cash, the assumption of $7.5 million La/Cal II
long-term debt and the issuance of 750,000 shares of Series B convertible
preferred stock of the Company ("Series B Preferred Stock") with an aggregate
liquidation value of $7.5 million. In connection with the La/Cal II
Acquisition, the Company increased its borrowing base to $22.5 million and
borrowed an additional $9 million to retire or (payoff) La/Cal II's debt and
to pay the cash portion of the purchase price. The Series B Preferred Stock
accrues dividends at a rate of 8.25% per annum and each share of Series B
Preferred Stock is convertible into 1.12 shares of common stock. Such shares
are redeemable by the Company after January 31, 2001 at $10.00 per share.
Results of Operations
Year ended December 31, 1999 versus year ended December 31, 1998--Total
revenues in 1999 amounted to $14,021,000 and were $3,429,000 (32%) higher than
total revenues in 1998 due primarily to higher oil and gas revenues. Oil and
gas sales were $3,898,000 higher due to higher oil and gas prices, higher oil
and gas production volumes and additional oil volumes associated with the
Lafitte Field acquisition in September 1999.
1999 1998
------------------------ ------------------------
Production Average Price Production Average Price
---------- ------------- ---------- -------------
Gas (Mcf)............... 2,930,655 $ 2.41 2,782,825 $ 2.18
Oil (Bbls).............. 394,442 $16.88 316,768 $11.88
Lease operating expense and production taxes were $3,592,000 for 1999
compared to $2,822,000 for 1998, or $770,000 higher substantially due to costs
related to the Lafitte Field properties. Depletion, depreciation and
amortization was $4,744,000 in 1999 versus $4,094,000 in 1998, or $650,000
higher due to increased oil and gas production including volumes associated
with the Lafitte Field properties.
The Company incurred $1,656,000 of exploration expense in 1999 compared to
$6,010,000 in 1998. Included in the 1999 exploration expense is $120,000 of
costs related to dry holes during the period versus $3,684,000 of such costs
related to dry holes in 1998.
The Company recorded an impairment in the recorded value of certain oil and
gas properties in 1999 in the amount of $465,000 due to the complete depletion
of the reserves on three one well non-core fields. This compares to an
impairment of $1,076,000 recorded in 1998.
13
Interest expense was $2,811,000 in 1999 compared to $1,910,000 (47% higher)
due to the Company having higher average debt outstanding as a result of the
September 23, 1999 private placement and a higher effective interest rate in
1999 compared to 1998. The 1999 effective interest includes financing costs
and non cash expense due to the amortization of the valuation of detachable
common stock purchase warrants issued in connection with the 1999 private
placement.
General and administrative expenses amounted to $1,990,000 for 1999 versus
$2,399,000 in 1998.
During 1999, no preferred stock dividends were declared, however, dividends
on the Company Series A and Series B preferred stock did accumulate to an
amount equal to $1,249,000 for 1999. The preferred stock dividends are
cumulative and the Company is prohibited from paying dividends on its Series A
and B preferred stock by its bank loan agreement. In addition, no stock
dividends can be paid until all preferred dividend arrearages are paid. The
Company also accrued non-cash dividends on its Goodrich--Louisiana Series A
Preferred units of $73,000 that is reflected as preferred dividends of
subsidiary in the statement of operations for 1999.
Year ended December 31, 1998 versus year ended December 31, 1997--Total
revenues in 1998, amounted to $10,592,000 and were $2,309,000 (18%) lower than
total revenues in 1997 due to lower oil and gas revenues and the loss of
revenues from the pipeline joint venture. Oil and gas sales were $1,515,000
lower due primarily to lower oil and gas prices, partially offset by higher
production volumes. Revenues from the pipeline joint venture were $-0- in 1998
compared to $1,078,000 in 1997 due to the sale of the asset in the fourth
quarter of 1997.
The following table reflects the production volumes and pricing information
for the periods presented:
1998 1997
------------------------ ------------------------
Production Average Price Production Average Price
---------- ------------- ---------- -------------
Gas (Mcf)............... 2,782,825 $ 2.18 2,449,320 $ 2.55
Oil (Bbls).............. 316,768 $11.88 282,380 $18.06
Lease operating expense and production taxes were $2,822,000 for 1998
compared to $2,316,000 for 1997, or $506,000 higher, due primarily to the
Company not incurring, in the 1997 period, ad valorem taxes related to the
La/Cal II properties whichthat were the responsibility of the La/Cal II partners.
Additionally, the 1998 period includes eight additional producing wells and
twelve months of lease operating expense and production taxes for the La/Cal
II properties, compared to eleven months for 1997 due to the effective date of
the acquisition being January 31, 1997. Depletion, depreciation and
amortization was $4,094,000 in 1998 versus $4,863,000 in 1997, or $769,000
lower, substantially due to no amortization of the pipeline joint venture in
1998 compared to $741,000 in 1997.
The Company incurred $6,010,000 of exploration expense in 1998 compared to
$3,206,000 in 1997. Included in the 1998 exploration expense is $3,684,000 of
costs related to dry holes during the period versus $2,342,000 of such costs
in 1997.
The Company recorded an impairment in the recorded value of certain oil and
gas properties in the fourth quarter of 1998 in the amount of $1,076,000 due to lower oil prices and
higher than expected depletion rates. This compares to an impairment of
$550,000 recorded in the same period a year ago.1997.
Interest expense was $1,910,000 in 1998 compared to $1,417,000 (35% higher)
due to the Company having higher average debt outstanding slightly offset by a
lower effective interest rate in 1998 compared to 1997.
General and administrative expenses amounted to $2,399,000 for 1998 versus
$2,628,000 in 1997.
13
The Company's preferred stock dividends amounted to $1,256,000 for 1998
compared to $1,205,000 in 1997, or $51,000 higher, due to twelve months of
dividends being paid on the Company's Series B Preferred Stock in the current
year versus eleven months in the prior year.
Year ended December 31, 1997 versus year ended December 31, 1996--Total
revenues in 1997 increased to $12,901,000 and were $3,132,000 (32%) higher
than total revenues in 1996 due to increased oil and gas revenues, offset by
lower revenues from the pipeline joint venture. Oil and gas sales were
$3,664,000 higher due substantially to increased revenues as a result of the
La/Cal II acquisition (effective January 31, 1997) along with increased gas
volumes on the pre-acquisition properties, offset somewhat by lower oil and
gas prices. Revenues from the pipeline joint venture were $459,000 lower in
1997 due to the sale of the asset in the fourth quarter of 1997.
The following table reflects the production volumes and pricing information
for the periods presented:

Oil (Bbls).............. 282,380 $18.06 165,964 $20.88
Lease operating expense and production taxes were $2,316,000 for 1997
compared to $1,615,000 for 1996 or $701,000 higher due primarily to the
addition of the La/Cal II properties. Depletion, depreciation and amortization
was $4,863,000 versus $3,788,000 for 1996 or $1,075,000 higher due to the
addition of the La/Cal II properties, offset by approximately $300,000 less
amortization of the pipeline joint venture. Included in depletion,
depreciation and amortization is depletion of oil and gas properties of
$4,066,000 and $2,684,000, respectively.
The Company incurred $3,206,000 of exploration expense in 1997 compared to
$1,149,000 in 1996. Included in the 1997 exploration expense is $2,342,000 of
costs related to dry holes during the period versus $542,000 of such costs in
1996.
The Company recorded impairments in the recorded value of certain oil and
gas properties in 1997 in the amount of $550,000.
Interest expense was $1,417,000 in 1997 compared to $828,000 due to
borrowings by the Company of $9,000,000 on January 31, 1997 in connection with
the La/Cal II Acquisition, resulting in higher average debt outstanding than
for the prior year.
General and administrative expenses amounted to $2,628,000 for 1997 versus
$2,096,000 in 1996 due largely to expenses associated with the addition of six
employees in 1997.
The Company recorded a gain on the sale of its interest in the pipeline
joint venture of $688,000 in 1997.
The Company's preferred stock dividends amounted to $1,205,000 for the
twelve months ended December 31, 1997 compared to $645,000 for 1996. The
increase was due to dividends paid on the Company's Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock issued on January 31, 1997 in connection with the La/Cal II
Acquisition.14

the borrowing of $9,000,000 by the Company under its line of credit, which was
used to pay off the debt assumed in the La/Cal II Acquisition and to pay the
cash portion of the purchase price. The 1997 amount also includes other
borrowings of $3,000,000 against its line of credit offset by paydowns during
the year of $3,500,000 and the payoff of La/Cal II debt of $7,464,000.

The 1996 amount primarily consistsPrivate Placement
On September 23, 1999, the Company and two of its subsidiaries, Goodrich
Petroleum Company, L.L.C. ("Goodrich-Louisiana") and Goodrich Petroleum
Company-Lafitte, L.L.C. ("Goodrich-Lafitte"), completed a private placement of
$15 million of convertible securities. As described below the private
placement transaction accomplished the objectives of management's plan as set
forth in the Liquidity and Capital Resources section of the borrowingCompany's 1998
Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Goodrich-Louisiana issued convertible notes in the amount of $1,800,000$6,000,000
that will accrue interest monthly at 8% in arrears until October 1, 2002.
Unless extended or converted, the principal and accrued interest will be
repayable in 24 months, beginning October 1, 2002. Principal and accrued
interest may be converted by the holder at any time into the common stock of
the Company at the rate of $4.00 per share. These convertible notes are
secured by various collateral, including a mortgage on Goodrich-Louisiana's
oil and gas properties. The purchasers of these notes received one warrant to
purchase a share of the common stock of the Company at $.9375 (the closing
price on the date the transaction was negotiated) for every $4.00 of notes
issued. The warrants may be exercised at any time before their expiration on
September 30, 2006.
Goodrich-Lafitte is a newly formed Louisiana limited liability company and
is the entity that owns a 49% interest in the Lafitte Field. Goodrich-Lafitte
also issued convertible notes in the amount of $6,000,000 that will accrue
interest at 8% per annum accruing monthly in arrears until October 1, 2002.
Unless extended or converted,

the principal and accrued interest will be repayable in 24 months, beginning
October 1, 2002. Principal and accrued interest may be converted by the holder
at any time into the common stock of the Company at the rate of $4.00 per
share. As an alternative conversion right, the principal and accrued interest
under these notes may be converted into common equity interests in Goodrich-
Lafitte, after October 1, 2002, if neither the common stock of the Company has
a closing price of at least $3.00 per share nor the net asset value per share
of the Company is at least $3.00. These convertible notes are secured by
various collateral, including a mortgage on Goodrich-Lafitte's oil and gas
properties. The purchasers of these notes received one warrant to purchase a
share of the common stock of the Company at $.9375 (the closing price on the
date the transaction was negotiated) for every $4.00 of notes issued. The
warrants may be exercised at any time before their expiration on September 30,
2006. The Company has a right to prepay the debt with a 10% penalty.
Approximately $3.7 million of the proceeds from the Goodrich-Lafitte
convertible notes were used to purchase the aforementioned interest in the
Lafitte Field. The remaining proceeds are being used for development capital
expenditures and for general corporate and working capital purposes.
Additionally, Goodrich-Louisiana issued $3,000,000 of preferred interests
consisting of 300,000 preferred units with a par value and liquidation
preference of $10 per share. Distributions on the preferred units will accrue
quarterly in arrears at 8% per annum through September 30, 2002, at which time
the rate increases 2% per year not to exceed 20%. Goodrich-Louisiana has the
right to redeem the units at any time. The preference amount and accrued
distributions may be converted by the holder at any time into the common stock
of the Company at $2.00 per share. Each preferred unit holder was also issued
one warrant to purchase a share of common stock of the Company for every $10
of preference value. The warrants are exercisable at $1.50 per share at any
time before their expiration on September 30, 2006. As mentioned in Note D to
Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company redeemed all of the outstanding
preferred units on February 17, 2000.
Approximately $2,500,000 of the proceeds from issuance of the convertible
notes and preferred units was allocated to additional paid in capital as the
fair value of the warrants issued in connection with the securities, based on
the relative fair value of the two securities. $2,300,000 of the proceeds
allocable to additional paid in capital will be amortized as additional
interest cost over the original term of the related notes. The remaining
adjustment to additional paid in capital related to the preferred units will
be recorded as accretion in the value of the preferred stockholders' equity in
a subsidiary company. Transaction costs related to the private placement
amounted to approximately $1,500,000. The transaction costs allocable to the
debt issue of $1,320,000 will be amortized over the life of the convertible
debt. The remaining costs of $180,000 were allocated to, and offset against
the Company's linecarrying value of credit partially offset by debt
paydownsthe preferred units.
Under the terms of $1,550,000 andthe Goodrich-Louisiana Operating Agreement, the holders
of preferred units have no voting rights unless the payment of distributions
is six months or more in arrears, in which event the holders of preferred
stock dividendsunits may participate in the election of $645,000 (Series A only)company managers. Goodrich-Louisiana
is precluded from issuing any new units having preference or priority over the
preferred units as to distributions, liquidation or redemption.
This transaction would normally have required approval of the Company's
shareholders according to the Shareholder Approval Policy of the New York
Stock Exchange (the "Exchange"). At December 31, 1998,Pursuant to an exception to this policy and
based on a determination by the Company's Audit Committee that the delay
necessary in securing shareholder approval prior to the transaction would
seriously jeopardize the financial viability of the Company, was notthe Company's
Audit Committee approved the Company's omission to seek shareholder approval.
The Exchange accepted the Company's application for use of the exception.
Lafitte Field Acquisition
As described in complianceNote E to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the
Company acquired a 49% working interest in in the Lafitte Field located in
Jefferson Parish, Louisiana for $2,940,000 on September 23, 1999. The field
encompasses over 8,000 acres and is located approximately thirty miles south
of New Orleans. The Company commenced development activities in the fourth
quarter of 1999.

The purchase agreement included a production payment to be satisfied
through the delivery of production from the purchased property. In connection
with the transaction, the Company recorded a restrictive
covenantproduction payment liability of
approximately $2,200,000 representing the discounted present value of
production payments to be made over the estimated time to satisfy the
production payment.

DueDecember 31, 1999. As
described in Note C to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company
completed a $4,500,000 private placement transaction of 1,500,000 shares of

directed toward making the Company profitable and improving its liquidity. The
principal strategies include:
1) raising additional capital through the issuance of equity securities,
or a combination of equity and subordinated debt;
2) acquisition of value enhancing oil and gas properties that offer
additional development opportunities and increased cash flow;
3) mergers and/or acquisitions by other entities;
4) reducing operating costs;

As a result, the outcome ofCompany's restriction on borrowing funds at the plan cannot presently be determined and no adjustments related
to the specific considerations of management's plan haveparent
company level has been made in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements. Should the plan not be
completed, the Company may not be able to liquidate liabilities as they come
due. In addition, the Company's current liquidity situation and its agreement
with Compass Bank have resulted in a suspension of new drilling expenditures
until such time as certain aforementioned principle strategies have been
effected.
Quarterly Cash Dividends
The Company announced on March 23, 1999 that it has suspended payment of its
regular quarterly cash dividend on both classes of its Preferred Stock. This
measure was taken to conserve cash for corporate and operating purposes and
was precipitated by the recent drop in commodity prices. The Company has no
plans to reinstate the cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
Year 2000
The Company is in the process of assessing the ability of its various
electronic operating systems, and those of significant third parties, to
appropriately consider periods and dates after December 31, 1999. The
Company's senior financial management has taken responsibility for
identifying, addressing and monitoring its Year 2000 issues. These individuals
report to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors on a periodic basis.
For Company systems identified as not being Year 2000 compliant, the Company
has developed plans to correct these systems and expects to be compliant on
the systems by the second quarter of 1999.
As for third parties with which the Company has a material relationship, the
Company is in various stages of discussions and conclusions related to the
ability of those third parties to become compliant and the related timing
thereof.
The estimated costs associated with becoming Year 2000 compliant are not
expected to be material to the Company.
The Company has begun, but not yet completed, a comprehensive analysis of
the operational problems and costs (including loss of revenues) that would be
reasonably likely to result from the failure by the Company and certain third
parties to complete efforts necessary to achieve Year 2000 compliance timely.
A contingency plan has not been developed for dealing with the most reasonably
likely worst case scenario, and such scenario has not yet been clearly
identified. The Company currently plans to complete such analysis and
contingency planning by the second quarter of 1999.
The failure to correct a material Year 2000 problem could result in an
interruption in, or failure of, certain normal business activities or
operations. Such failures could materially and adversely affect the Company's
16
results of operations, liquidity and financial condition. Due to the general
uncertainty inherent in the Year 2000 problem, resulting in part from the
uncertainty of the Year 2000 readiness of third-party suppliers and customers,
the Company is unable to determine at this time whether the consequences of
Year 2000 failures will have a material impact on the Company's results of
operations, liquidity or financial condition. The Company's Year 2000 efforts
are expected to significantly reduce the Company's level of uncertainty about
the Year 2000 problem. The Company believes that, with the implementation of
new business systems and completion of the various above-mentioned tasks as
scheduled, the possibility of interruptions to normal operations should be
significantly reduced.eliminated.
Stock Listing
TheOn July 28, 1999 the Company was notified by the New York Stock Exchange
that it is not in
compliance with certain of the Exchange'shad revised its minimum financial criteria for listed companies.companies and
the time frame required for listed companies to become compliant. In addition,
the Company was informed that it was not in compliance with the revised
criteria. The Company submitted a three-yearrevised twelve month business plan to the
Exchange in response to the notice.notice on September 10, 1999. The Exchange accepted the Company's business plan
was accepted by the New York Stock Exchange and will monitor itsbe monitored by the
Exchange for compliance with the plan on a quarterly basis. As described above,The short term nature of the
Company's liquidity situationbusiness plan may make it difficult for the Company to adhere to this business plan. If the
Company fails to do so, there can be no assurance that the New York Stock
Exchange will not delist the CompanyCompany's common stock.
Accounting Matters
The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133, Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, in June 1997. This
statement established accounting and reporting standards for derivative
instruments and hedging activities. Effective January 1, 2001, the Company
must recognize the fair
17
value of all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in its
Consolidated Balance Sheet. As derivative instrument meeting certain
conditions may be designated as a hedge of a specific exposure; accounting for
changes in a derivative's fair value will depend on the intended use of the
derivative and the resulting designation. Any transition adjustments resulting
from adopting this statement will be reported in net income or other
comprehensive income, as appropriate, as the cumulative effect of a change in
accounting principle period. As described under the heading "Quantitative and
Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" below of this Form 10-K report, the
Company makes use of derivative instruments to hedge specific market risks.
The Company has not yet determined the effects that SFAS No. 133 will have on
its future consolidated financial statements or the amount of the cumulative
adjustment that will be made upon adopting this new standard.
Year 2000
The Company experienced no interruption in, or failure of its normal
business activities or operations as a result of Year 2000 issues. Costs
incurred by the Company to become Year 2000 compliant were not material.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Debt and debt-related derivatives
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its short-term and long-termlong-
term debt with variable interest rates ($29.5 million at December 31, 1998).rates. Based on the overall interest rate
exposure on variable rate debt at December 31, 19981999 a hypothetical 2% change
in the interest rates would increase interest expense by approximately
$506,000.
Hedging Activity
The Company engages in futures contracts ("Agreements") with certain of its
production. The Company considers these to be hedging activities and, as such,
monthly settlements on these contracts are reflected in oil and gas sales. In
order to consider these futures contracts as hedges, (i) the Company must
designate the futures contract as a hedge of future production and (ii) the
contract must reduce the Company's exposure to the risk of changes in prices.
Changes in the market value of futures contracts treated as hedges are not
materially
affectrecognized in income until the hedged item is also recognized in income. If
the above criteria are not met, the Company will record the market value of
the contract at the end of each month and recognize a related gain or loss.
Proceeds received or paid relating to terminated contracts or contracts that
have been sold are amortized over the original contract period and reflected
in oil and gas sales. The Company enters into hedging activities in order to
secure an acceptable future price relating to a portion of future production.
The primary objective of the activities is to protect against decreases in
price during the term of the hedge.
The Agreements provide for separate contracts tied to the NYMEX light sweet
crude oil and natural gas futures contracts. The Company has contracts which
contain specific contracted prices ("Swaps") or price ranges ("Collars") that
are settled monthly based on the differences between the contract price or
price ranges and the average NYMEX prices for each month applied to the
related contract volumes. To the extent the average NYMEX price exceeds the
contract price, the Company pays the spread, and to the extent the contract
price exceeds the average NYMEX price the Company receives the spread.
As of December 31, 1999, the Company's open forward position on its
outstanding crude oil was as follows:
(a) 350 barrels of oil per day with a no cost "collar" of $19.00 and
$21.00 per barrel through December 2000;
(b) 150 barrels of oil per day with a no cost "collar" of $18.20 and
$20.20 per barrel through December 2000; and
(c) 300 barrels of oil per day on a crude oil "swap" with a price of
$23.98 per barrel through April 2000.
18
At December 31, 1999 the Company's open forward position on its outstanding
crude oil hedging contracts was 800 bbl per day at an average price of $21.29.
The fair value of the crude oil hedging contracts in place at December 31,
1999 resulted in a liability of $330,000.
At December 31, 1999 the Company's open forward position on its outstanding
gas hedging contracts was 5,000 Mcf per day with a "floor" price of $2.50 per
Mcf through October 2000. The cost of the "floor" contract hedge is $0.23 per
Mcf over the "floor" price. The fair value of the natural gas hedging
contracts in place at December 31, 1999 resulted in an asset of $300,000.
Price fluctuations and the volatile nature of markets
Despite the measures taken by the Company to attempt to control price risk,
the Company remains subject to price fluctuations for natural gas and oil sold
in the spot market. Prices received for natural gas sold on the spot market
are volatile due primarily to seasonality of demand and other factors beyond
the Company's control. Domestic oil and gas prices could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's financial position, net income or liquidity.results of operations and
quantities of reserves recoverable on an economic basis.
Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Annual Report on Form 10-K includes "forward-looking statements"
within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Securities Act") and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended (the "Exchange Act"). All statements other than statements of
historical facts included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K regarding reserve
estimates, planned capital expenditures, future oil and gas production and
prices, future drilling activity, the Company's financial position, the
ability to become year 2000 compliant, business
strategy and other plans and objectives for future operations, are forward-lookingforward-
looking statements. Although the Company believes that the expectations
reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, it can give no
assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in
estimating quantities of proved oil and natural gas reserves and in projecting
future rates of production and timing of development expenditures, including
many factors beyond the control of the Company. Reserve engineering
is a subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of oil and
natural gas that cannot be measured in an exact way, and the accuracy of any
reserve estimate is a function of the quality of available data and of
engineering and geological interpretation and judgment. As a result, estimates
made by different engineers often vary from one another. In addition, results
of drilling, testing and production subsequent to the date of an estimate may
justify revisions of such estimateestimates and such revisions and if significant,
would change the schedule of any further production and development drilling.
Accordingly, reserve estimates are generally different from the quantities of
oil and natural gas that are ultimately recovered. Additional important
factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the
Company's expectations include changes in oil and gas prices, changes in
regulatory or environmental policies, production difficulties, transportation

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Goodrich Petroleum Corporation:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Goodrich
Petroleum Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 19981999 and 1997,1998, and
the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and
comprehensive income and cash flows for each of the years in the three year
period ended December 31, 1998.1999. These consolidated financial statements are
the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Goodrich
Petroleum Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 19981999 and 1997,1998, and
the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in
the three year period ended December 31, 1998,1999, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared
assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in note C
to the consolidated financial statements, working capital deficiencies,
required payments under the Company credit facility and restrictions imposed
by the Company's Series A Preferred Stock raise substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard
to these matters are discussed in note C. The consolidated financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome
of this uncertainty.

in seven states, primarily in Louisiana and Texas. Two of the Company's
subsidiaries also had a minority interest in a natural gas pipeline joint
venture located in the state of Texas until such interest was sold in 1997.
NOTE B--Business Combinations
On January 31, 1997, the Company acquired the oil and gas properties of
La/Cal Energy Partners II ("La/Cal II") and certain working interest owners
for a purchase price of $16.5 million ("La/Cal II Acquisition"). The purchase
price was comprised of $1.5 million cash, the assumption of $7.5 million of
La/Cal II long-term debt and the issuance of 750,000 shares of Series B
convertible preferred stock of the Company ("Series B Preferred Stock") with
an aggregate liquidation value of $7.5 million. In connection with the La/Cal
II Acquisition, the Company borrowed an additional $9 million under its bank
credit facility, which was used to repay $7.5 million of La/Cal II debt and to
pay the $1.5 million cash portion of the purchase price. The Series B
Preferred Stock has a dividend rate of 8.25% per annum and each share of
Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into 1.12 shares of common stock. Such
shares are redeemable by the Company after January 31, 2001 at $10.00 per
share.
The La/Cal II acquisition was accounted for as a purchase business
combination and the operations of the related properties are included in the
Company's results of operations effective January 31, 1997.
NOTE C--Liquidity and Management's Plan
Liquidity--As disclosed in Note G, the Company's current liabilities include
the outstanding principal balance under the Company's credit facility of
$29,500,000. Additionally, the Company is unable to incur additional debt
under its credit facility or from any other sources until such time as its
stockholders' equity balance is greater than the liquidation preference of the
Series A Preferred Stock of approximately $7.9 million.
Management's Plan--Due to the Company's existing current working capital
deficiency, required pay downs under its credit facility and the restrictions
imposed by the Series A Preferred Stock, management is exploring a number of
alternatives that are directed toward making the Company profitable and
improving its liquidity. The principal strategies include:
1) raising additional capital through the issuance of equity securities;
or a combination of equity and subordinated debt;
2) acquisition of value enhancing oil and gas properties that offer
additional development opportunities and increased cash flow;
3) mergers and/or acquisitions by other entities;
4) reducing operating costs;
5) sale of certain oil and gas properties;
6) renegotiation or amendment of the Company's credit facility and
capital structure
As with any plan of this nature, its ultimate realization will depend upon
the cooperation of creditors, potential investors and others. As a result, the
outcome of the plan cannot presently be determined and no

adjustments related to the specific considerations of management's plan have
been made in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Should the
plan not be completed, the Company may not be able to liquidate liabilities as
they come due.
NOTE D--SummaryB--Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation--The consolidated financial statements include
the financial statements of Goodrich Petroleum Corporation, its wholly-owned
subsidiaries, and one of its wholly-owned subsidiary's three wholly-owned
subsidiaries. Significant intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.
OilRevenue Recognition--Revenues from the production of natural gas properties
in which the Company has an interest with other producers are recognized on
the entitlements method. Differences between actual production and gas revenues--Oil and gas revenuesnet working
interest volumes are recorded using the accrual
method of accounting.routinely adjusted. These differences are not
significant.
Property and Equipment--The Company uses the successful effortseffort method of
accounting for exploration and development expenditures.
Leasehold acquisition costs are capitalized. When proved reserves are found
on an undeveloped property, leasehold cost is reclassified to proved
properties. Significant undeveloped leases are reviewed periodically, and a
valuation allowance is provided for any estimated decline in value. Cost of
all other undeveloped leases is amortized over the estimated average holding
period of the leases.
Costs of exploratory drilling are initially capitalized, but if proved
reserves are not found, the costs are subsequently expensed. All other
exploratory costs are charged to expense as incurred. Development costs are
capitalized, including the cost of unsuccessful development wells.
The Company follows SFAS No. 121 and recognizes an impairment is when the net
of future cash inflows expected to be generated by an identifiable long-
livedlong-lived
asset and cash outflows expected to be required to obtain those cash inflows
is less than the carrying value of the asset. The Company performs this
comparison for its oil and gas properties on a field-by-field basis.basis using the
company's estimates of future commodity prices. The amount of such loss is
measured based on the difference between the discounted value of such net
future cash flows and the carrying value of the asset. The Company recorded
such impairments in 1999, 1998 and 1997 in the amounts of $465,000, $1,076,000
and $550,000 respectively. The impairments were generally the result of
certain fields depleting earlier than anticipated.
Depreciation and depletion of producing oil and gas properties are provided
under the unit-of-production method. Proved developed reserves are used to
compute unit rates for unamortized tangible and intangible development costs,
and proved reserves are used for unamortized leasehold costs. Estimated
dismantlement, abandonment, and site restoration costs, net of salvage value,
are considered in determining depreciation and depletion provisions.
Gains and losses on disposals or retirements that are significant or
include an entire depreciable or depletable property unit are included in
income. All other dispositions, retirements, or abandonments are reflected in
accumulated depreciation, depletion, and amortization.

Cash and Cash Equivalents--Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand,

ninety days or less at date of purchase.
Marketable Equity Securities--The Company has classified its investment in
marketable equity securities as available for sale. Accordingly, unrealized
holding gains and losses are excluded from earnings and are reported as other
comprehensive income until realized. The Company sold its marketable equity
securities in January 1999.

Investment in Pipeline Joint Venture--Prior to its sale in October 1997,
the Company's investment consisted of a 20% interest in an intrastate natural
gas pipeline joint venture. The Company's carrying basis in the investment was
established at August 15, 1995 (fair value) and was being amortized on a basis
which matched the amortization with the monthly maximum average contract
quantities over the estimated remaining term of the joint venture.
Amortization amounted to $-0-, $741,000 and $1,060,000 for the yearsyear ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.1997. The
Company recorded its equity in joint venture earnings as revenues in the
statement of operations in the periods when the contract payments were earned.
Income Taxes--The Company follows the provisions of SFAS No. 109,
Accounting for Income Taxes which requires income taxes be accounted for under
the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between
the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities
and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit
carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted
tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those
temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on
deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in
income in the period that includes the enactment date.
Earnings Per Share--Basic income per Common share is computed by dividing
net income available for common stockholders, for each reporting period by the
weighted average number of Common shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted income per Common share is computed by dividing net income available
for common stockholders for each reporting period by the weighted average
number of Common shares outstanding during the period, plus the effects of
potentially dilutive Common shares.
Derivative Financial Instruments--The Company utilizes derivative
instruments such as futures, forwards, options, collars and swaps for purposes
of hedging its exposure to fluctuations in the price of crude oil and natural
gas. Gains and losses from derivatives designated as hedges of sales are
reported on the statement of income as an increase or reduction of oil and gas
sales in the period related to the actual sale of product. Premiums paid on
hedging contracts are amortized over the life of the contracts as a reduction
to oil and gas sales.
Accounting Matters--The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS
No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, in June
1997. This statement established accounting and reporting standards for
derivative instruments and hedging activities. Effective January 1, 2001, the
Company must recognize the fair value of all derivative instruments as either
assets or liabilities in its Consolidated Balance Sheet. A derivative
instrument meeting certain conditions may be designated as a hedge of a
specific exposure; accounting for changes in a derivative's fair value will
depend on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation.
Any transition adjustments resulting from adopting this statement will be
reported in net income or other comprehensive income, as appropriate, as the
cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. The Company makes use
of derivative instruments to hedge specific market risks. The Company has not
yet determined the effects that SFAS No. 133 will have on its future
consolidated financial statements or the amount of the cumulative adjustment
that will be made upon adopting this new standard.

Stock Based Compensation--The Company uses SFAS No. 123, Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation, which permits entities to recognize as expense, over
the vesting period, the fair value of all stock-based awards on the date of
grant. Alternatively, SFAS No. 123 also allows entities to continue to apply
the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees, and provide pro forma net income and pro forma earnings per share
and other disclosures for employee stock options grants made in 1995 and
future years as if the fair-value-based method defined in SFAS No. 123 had
been applied. The Company has elected to continue to apply the provisions of
APB Opinion No. 25 and provide the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123.
Commitments and Contingencies--Liabilities for loss contingencies,
including environmental remediation costs, arising from claims, assessments,
litigation, fines and penalties, and other sources are recorded when it is
probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment
and/or remediation can be reasonably estimated. Recoveries from third parties,
which are probable of realization, are separately recorded, and are not offset
against the related environmental liability.
Use of Estimates--Management of the Company has made a number of estimates
and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these consolidated
financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
25NOTE C--Private Placement
On September 23, 1999, the Company and two of its subsidiaries, Goodrich
Petroleum Company, L.L.C. ("Goodrich-Louisiana") and Goodrich Petroleum
Company-Lafitte, L.L.C. ("Goodrich-Lafitte"), completed a private placement of
$15 million of convertible securities. As described below the private
placement transaction accomplished the objectives of management's plan as set
forth in the Liquidity and Capital Resources section of the Company's 1998
Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Goodrich-Louisiana issued convertible notes in the amount of $6,000,000
that will accrue interest monthly at 8% per annum in arrears until October 1,
2002. Unless extended or converted, the principal and accrued interest will be
repayable in 24 monthly installments, beginning October 1, 2002. Principal and
accrued interest may be converted by the holder at any time into the common
stock of the Company at the rate of $4.00 per share. These convertible notes
are secured by various collateral, including a mortgage on Goodrich-
Louisiana's oil and gas properties. The purchasers of these notes received one
warrant to purchase a share of the common stock of the Company at $.9375 (the
closing price on the date the transaction was negotiated) for every $4.00 of
notes issued. The warrants may be exercised at any time before their
expiration on September 30, 2006.

The preliminary agreementvaluation allowance for deferred tax assets increased $680,000 and
decreased $2,221,000 for the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998,
respectively. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets,
management considers whether it is subject to definitive documentation and Lender
credit approval.
Substantiallymore likely than not that some portion or
all of the Company'sdeferred tax assets will
32
GOODRICH PETROLEUM CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent
upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those
temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled
reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax
planning strategies in making this assessment. Based primarily upon the level
of projections for future taxable income generated primarily by the reversal
of future taxable temporary differences over the periods which the deferred
tax assets are pledgeddeductible, management believes it is more likely than not the
Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences, net of the
existing valuation allowance at December 31, 1999. The amount of the deferred
tax assets considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term
if estimates of future taxable income during the carryforward period are
reduced.

principle amount was $2,825,000 and the recorded liability was $2,113,000.
Under the terms of the production payment the Company must make monthly cash
payments which approximates the Company's forty-nine percent share of 10% of
monthly gross oil and gas revenue of the Lafitte Field.
The Company's estimate as of December 31, 1999, based on expected
production and prices and expected discount amortization is that projected

Stock Option and Incentive Programs--Goodrich currently has two plans,
which provide for stock option and other incentive awards for the Company's
key employees, consultants and directors. The Goodrich Petroleum Corporation
1995 Stock Option Plan allows the Board of Directors to grant stock options,
restricted stock awards, stock appreciation rights, long-term incentive awards
and phantom stock awards, or any combination thereof to key employees and
consultants. The Goodrich Petroleum Corporation 1997 Director Compensation
Plan provides for the grant of stock and options to each director who is not
and has never been an employee of the Company. Additionally, Goodrich assumed
certain outstanding stock options of Patrick as a result of the business
combination in 1995.
The Goodrich plans authorize grants of options to purchase up to a combined
total of 437,500 shares of authorized but unissued common stock. Stock options
are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the stock's fair market
value at the date of grant and all stock options granted under the 1995 Stock
Option Plan generally have ten year terms and fivethree year pro rata vesting.
The per share weighted-average fair value of stock options granted during
1999, 1998 and 1997 was $1.59, $2.17 and 1996 was $2.17, $2.57 and $3.06 on the date of grant using the
Black Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average

NOTE I--Commitments and ContingenciesJ--Series A Preferred Stock
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") has identifiedterms of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock provided that the
Company will not incur additional debt at the parent company level after such
time as a potentially responsible party ("PRP") forit reports financial results which show the cost of clean-up of
"hazardous substances" at an oil field waste disposal site in Vermilion
Parish, Louisiana. The Company has estimated thatCompany's stockholders'
equity to be less than the remaining cost of long-
term clean-upliquidation preference of the site will be approximately $3.5 million with the
Company's percentage of responsibility to be approximately 3.05%.Series A Preferred
Stock. As of December 31, 1998,1999, the Company's stockholders' equity was
approximately $6.4 million and the liquidation preference on the outstanding
shares of the Series A Preferred Stock was approximately $7.9 million. As a
result, the Company was unable to incur additional debt at the parent company
level under its credit facility or from other sources at the present time. On
February 17, 2000, the Company completed a $4,500,000 private placement
transaction of 1,500,000 shares of common stock, and effected the conversion
of all the outstanding Goodrich Petroleum Company, LLC Series A Preferred
Units, which converted into approximately 1,550,000 shares of the Company's
common stock. The conversion of the preferred units and private placement
increased stockholders equity by approximately $7,200,000, which makes total
stockholders equity exceed the liquidation preference on the Series A
Preferred Stock. As a result, the Company's restriction on funds at the parent
Company level has been eliminated.
NOTE K--Hedging Activities
The Company engages in futures contracts ("Agreements") with certain of its
production. The Company considers these to be hedging activities and, as such,
monthly settlements on these contracts are reflected in oil and gas sales. In
order to consider these futures contracts as hedges, (i) the Company must
designate the futures contract as a hedge of future production and (ii) the
contract must reduce the Company's exposure to the risk of changes in prices.
Changes in the market value of futures contracts treated as hedges are not
recognized in income until the hedged item is also recognized in income. If
the above criteria are not met, the Company will record the market value of
the contract at the end of each month and recognize a related gain or loss.
Proceeds received or paid approximately $321,000relating to terminated contracts or contracts that
have been sold are amortized over the original contract period and reflected
in costs
relatedoil and gas sales. The Company enters into hedging activities in order to
this mattersecure an acceptable future price relating to a portion of future production.
The primary objective of the activities is to protect against decreases in
price during the term of the hedge.
The Agreements provide for separate contracts tied to the NYMEX light sweet
crude oil and natural gas futures contracts. The Company has $92,000 accrued forcontracts which
contain specific contracted prices ("Swaps") or price ranges ("Collars") that
are settled monthly based on the remaining liability.
These costs have not been discounted to their present value. The EPAdifferences between the contract prices or
prices ranges and the PRPs will continueaverage NYMEX prices for each month applied to evaluate the
siterelated contract volumes. To the extent the average NYMEX price exceeds the
contract price, the Company pays the spread, and revise estimates forto the long-term
clean-upextent the contract
price exceeds the average NYMEX price the Company receives the spread.
As of the site. There can be no assurance that the cost of clean-up andDecember 31, 1999, the Company's percentage responsibility will not be higher than currently
estimated. In addition, under the federal environmental laws, the liability
costs for the
29open forward position on its
outstanding crude oil was as follows:
(d) 350 barrels of oil per day with a no cost "collar" of $19.00 and
$21.00 per barrel through December 2000;

(e) 150 barrels of oil per day with a no cost "collar" of $18.20 and
$20.20 per barrel through December 2000; and
(f) 300 barrels of oil per day on a crude oil "swap" with a price of
$23.98 per barrel through April 2000.
At December 31, 1999 the site is joint and several among all PRPs. Therefore,Company's open forward position on its outstanding
crude oil hedging contracts was 800 bbl per day at an average price of $21.29.
At December 31, 1999 the ultimateCompany's open forward position on its outstanding
gas hedging contract was 5,000 Mcf per day with a "floor" price of $2.50 per
Mcf through October 2000. The cost of the clean-up"floor" contract hedge is $0.23 per
Mcf over the "floor" price.
The Company is exposed to credit losses in the event of non performance by
the counterparties to its hedging contracts. The Company anticipates, however,
that counterparties will be able to fully satisfy their obligations under the
contracts. The Company does not obtain collateral to support financial
instruments but monitors the credit standing of the counterparties.
Price fluctuations and volatile nature of markets
Despite the measures taken by the Company could be significantly higher
than the amount presently estimated or accrued for this liability.
Additionally,to attempt to control price risk,
the Company is partyremains subject to a number of lawsuits arisingprice fluctuations for natural gas and oil sold

============ ============
The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets increased $2,221,000 for the
year ended December 31, 1998 and decreased $3,845,000 for the year ended
December 31, 1997. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets,
management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or
all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization
of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable
income during the periods in which those temporary differences become
deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax
liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in
making this assessment. Based primarily upon the level of projections for
future taxable income generated primarily by the reversal of future taxable
temporary differences over the periods which the deferred tax assets are
deductible, management believes it is more likely than not the Company will
realize the benefits of these deductible differences, net of the existing
valuation allowance at December 31, 1998. The amount of the deferred tax
assets considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term if
estimates of future taxable income during the carryforward period are reduced.

33NOTE N--Commitments and Contingencies
The U. S. Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") has identified the
Company as a potentially responsible party ("PRP") for the cost of clean-up of
"hazardous substances" at an oil field waste disposal site in Vermilion
Parish, Louisiana. The Company estimates that the remaining cost of long-term
clean-up of the site will be approximately $3.5 million, with the Company's
percentage of responsibility estimated to be approximately 3.05%. As of
December 31, 1999, the Company had paid $321,000 in costs related to this
matter and accrued $122,500 for the remaining liability. These costs have not
been discounted to their present value. The EPA and the PRPs will continue to
evaluate the site and revise estimates for the long-term clean-up of the site.
There can be no assurance that the cost of clean-up and the Company's
percentage responsibility will not be higher than currently estimated. In
addition, under the federal environmental laws, the liability costs for the
clean-up of the site is joint and several among all PRPs. Therefore, the
ultimate cost of the clean-up to the Company could be significantly higher
than the amount presently estimated or accrued for this liability.
On February 8, 2000, the Company commenced a suit against the operator and
joint owner of the Lafitte Field, alleging certain items of misconduct and
violations of the letter agreement associated with the joint acquisition. The
suit is in its early stages and it is too early to predict a likely outcome,
however, as the Company is the plaintiff in this action, this action is not
expected to have a significantly adverse impact on the operations or financial
position of the Company.
The Company is party to additional lawsuits arising in the normal course of
business. The Company intends to defend these actions vigorously and believes,
based on currently available information, that adverse results or judgments
from such actions, if any, will not be material to its financial position or
results of operations.

December 31, 1999
Schedules 1 and 2--Estimated Net Proved Oil and Gas Reserves
Substantially all of the Company's reserve information related to crude
oil, condensate, and natural gas liquids and natural gas was compiled based on
evaluations performed by Coutret and Associates, Inc. All of the subject
reserves are located in the continental United States.
34
GOODRICH PETROLEUM CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
December 31, 1998
Many assumptions and judgmental decisions are required to estimate
reserves. Quantities reported are considered reasonable but are subject to
future revisions, some of which may be substantial, as additional information
becomes available. Such additional knowledge may be gained as the result of
reservoir performance, new geological and geophysical data, additional
drilling, technological advancements, price changes, and other factors.
Regulations published by the Securities and Exchange Commission define
proved reserves as those volumes of crude oil, condensate, and natural gas
liquids and natural gas that geological and engineering data demonstrate with
reasonable certainty are recoverable from known reservoirs under existing
economic and operating conditions. Proved developed reserves are those volumes
expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and
operating methods. Proved undeveloped reserves are those volumes expected to
be recovered as a result of making additional investment by drilling new wells
on acreage offsetting productive units or recompleting existing wells.
Schedule 3--Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows to
Proved Oil and Gas Reserves
SFAS No. 69 requires calculation of future net cash flows using a ten
percent annual discount factor and year end prices, costs, and statutory tax
rates, except for known future changes such as contracted prices and
legislated tax rates.
The calculated value of proved reserves is not necessarily indicative of
either fair market value or present value of future cash flows because prices,
costs, and governmental policies do not remain static; appropriate discount
rates may vary; and extensive judgment is required to estimate the timing of
production. Other logical assumptions would likely have resulted in
significantly different amounts. Average crudeCrude oil prices received for oil and the average
price received by well for natural gas, effective at the end of each year,
were used for this calculation, and wereaveraged $25.16 per bbl and $2.63 per Mcf,
respectively as of December 31, 1999; $9.37 per bblBbl and $2.24 per Mcf,
respectively as of December 31, 1998, and $16.50 per Bbl and $2.59 per Mcf,
respectively as of December 31, 1997, and $23.88 per Bbl and $4.17
per Mcf, respectively as of December 31, 1996. Oil prices have subsequently
increased while gas prices have subsequently declined from December 31, 1998
levels.1997.
